Detailed Description

template<class T, size_t Extent>
class AZStd::span< T, Extent >

Full C++20 implementation of span done using the C++ draft at https://eel.is/c++draft/views. It does not maintain storage for the data, but just hold a pointer to mark the beginning and the size for the elements. It can be constructed any type that models the C++ contiguous_range concept such like array, vector, fixed_vector, raw-array, string_view, string, etc... .

Example: Given "void Func(AZStd::span<int> a) {...}" you can call...

  • Func({1,2,3});
  • AZStd::array<int,3> a = {1,2,3}; Func(a);
  • AZStd::vector<int> v = {1,2,3}; Func(v);
  • AZStd::fixed_vector<int,10> fv = {1,2,3}; Func(fv);

Since the span does not copy and store any data, it is only valid as long as the data used to create it is valid.
